Re: Validate UK postcode without a space in it
What I meant was that perhaps an enhancement ticket should be opened
to have the core changed.

Re: Validate UK postcode without a space in it
Or just create a custom validation rule, where you can add your own regexp -
remember, that not changing the core will always be so helpful sooner or
later ;)

Re: Validate UK postcode without a space in it
It looks like the Validation regex needs to be updated. This:
$_this->regex = '/\\A\\b[A-Z]{1,2}[0-9][A-Z0-9]?
[0-9][ABD-HJLNP-UW-Z]{2}\\b\\z/i';
should be:
$_this->regex =
'/\\A\\b[A-Z]{1,2}[0-9][A-Z0-9]?[\s]?[0-9][ABD-HJLNP-UW-Z]{2}\\b\\z/i';
Ditto for the Canadian one.

Validate UK postcode without a space in it
Hi
I've got a model that uses
'rule'=>array('postal',null,'uk')
to successfully validate UK postcodes.
However testing has shown that many people enter their postcodes in
forms without using the space, so:
W1W 5QU <-- validates
W1W5QU <-- does not validate
Has anyone got any tips on getting the validation to work irrespective
of whether a user includes or excludes the space?
Thanks
c5
